Does the Corsair 600t support E-ATX?


Ultimatium

Recommended Posts

I am sorry is this has already been answered.

 

Does this case support E-ATX motherboards like the EVGA classified?

 

What are the options for watercooling? Does it support any dual/tripple radiators? Would i be able to fit an EK Multi option 250 resevoir inside the 600T?

 

Thanks.

No.

you can remove the top panel 200mm fan and install a 240mm radiator and dual 120mm fans for a quick watercooling upgrade.

Yellowbeard's Build Log pics may help decide that: http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91220

Orangebeard, can you please do me a favour and check if you can fit the EVGA E760/H50/600T combo on the 120mm fan on the left side of the chassis, given you still have all 3 parts? Would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

( without trimming off any fans or changing order of fans/radiator,etc. )

I don't think the 600T supports E-ATX default but the case does fit a E-ATX board without any worries,I just fitted a asus rampage 3 extreme board into the 600T case and it fitted no dramas at all,only thing that may annoy some people is that the board overlaps a couple of the rubber gromets but that's no big deal here is how my system looks with the board in,you can also watch this youtube review with a rampage 3 extreme installed in the 600T aswell

Ok cool mate, thanks. My only worries now is if the Classified's heatsink will block the H50 radiator.

 

By the way, how is the cable management on 600T in comparison to 800D? Any improvements?

Yeah I am not sure about the H50 but I think the H70 has problems fitting in the 600T from a couple of youtube videos I watched,with the cable management well I would say that it's pretty good but since the case is a lot smaller than the 800D I used to own and even my previous case before this one the HAF,X it harder to hide cables in a case that's a fair bit smaller than both those two larger cases I mentioned,here is 3 photos of all 3 systems you can see both the larger cases turned out really well with the cable management but the 600T still good but just ran out of room to hide it all,I just ordered up the new corsair AX1200 power supply so that should clean things up a bit with the black sleeved cables,here is those comparison photos anyway to give you a good idea.

thanks mate, great info. seems like cable management in 600T is not too good. I have the 800D and the interior is completely cable-free. that means that only the necesary cables, 24pin,2x8pin,1x6pin and 1x8pin ( mobo,cpu,gfx,) are displayable. they are all custom sleeved black so it makes an illusion that the components are cable-free. i want to do the same with the 600T. Also, i need to make sure that the H50 fits so if anyone has any experienc/knowledge on this subject please post. thanks.

Both the H50 and H70 fit easily into the 600T. We would not design a case that is incompatible with our cooling. And, the cable management options inside the 600T are equally as good as the 800D. The only real difference is case size but that does not reflect the quality of the cable management. It's a simple matter of how much gear you can stuff into 1 case vs another different sized case.

 

Also, I would NOT base it on the pic referenced above. The cable management used by the person that installed that hardware is not too good. It's not a modular PSU and they did not use the grommets.

Yes but you still didn't answer my question. Does the H50 fit into 600T with the EVGA E760 MOBO. This is really what i want to know, i don't want the H50 radiator to be blocked by the e760 chipset heatsink. thanks.

In ANY case made that supports motherboards that conform to ATX specifications, the spacing from the area around the I/O panel to that heatsink is going to be approximately the same. So, just like with the 800D or any other case you try to put the Classified MOBO + H50 into, you are going to have the same lack of clearance.

So you cannot mount the H50 on the 120mm fan in the 600T just like you can't with the 800D? that sucks...

??? It's modular, and they used (some) grommets.

Odd, you are correct about it being modular. The wiring looked so bad it looked like a non modular unit.

 

However, modular or not, I don't see any PSU leads going thru the grommets.

I'm sorry but that looks terrible! lol. No offence, Yellowbeard. I'm not doubting your skills but that build looks rather messy.

 

It's not my build but I agree with you. The original pictures were posted by someone else in this thread and you quoted them above.

 

My 600T build is coming along nicely and is a bit neater. And FYI, Redbeard aka Barbarossa is someone else. ::pirate::
